Up To Something Good
03:54
|
|||
(Richards / Arbuckle)
V1
It’s a bird, It’s a plane
A girl and a game
No Lois Lane (and)
No-o Robin
Nothing to fear when she’s near
Tying her cape
Mask on her face
Saving the day
From all the rotten
The world needs a smile and it’s here
PRE 1
In a single bound
Look what she’s doing now
CH
She’s Up To Something Good
Whenever she’s around then
Life feels the way it should
It’s amazing how
When everything is in a mess
That’s when it’s
It’s the best, yeah
She’s Up To Something Good
V2
One of those days
Dizzy and dazed
The whole world’s a maze
And you’re the hamster
Chasing your tail, ‘round a wheel
Life’s loop-di-loops
Puddles of goop
Strawberries boots, her go-to answer
Try it and see how good it feels
PRE 2
In a single a bound
Shazam, splat, pow
CHORUS
Instrumental Bridge
CHORUS REPEAT

I Love You
02:49
|
|||
V1
I’ve got a secret
And I don’t want to keep it
Can I give it away to you?
If we get a little closer
Like a bee gets to clover
Can I give you a clue?
It’s something that you do
CHORUS
Ba ba baa
Ba ba baa
I love you
Ba Ba Baa
Ba Ba Baa
Dreams do come true
Ba ba baa
Ba ba baa
Ba ba ba baa
V2
If everybody
Made love instead of money
The sky would be a little more blue
If they felt the butterflies
Looking in another’s eyes
The world from love’s point of view
They’d be singing too
CHORUS
BR
I love you, only you
And I know
You love me too
(4x)
CHORUS
Ba ba baa
Ba ba baa
I love you
Ba Ba Baa
Ba Ba Baa
Dreams do come true
Ba ba baa
Ba ba baa
I love you
Ba Ba Baa
Ba Ba Baa
Dreams do come true
Ba ba baa
Ba ba baa
I love you

Love Is The Way
03:44
|
|||
V1
Life a puzzle
So much trouble
To make all
The pieces fit
This way, that way
Where or when?
So close, uh-oh
Missed again
Always opposite
PRE
Trying to get closer, so yer
Pulling the string
Harder we try
The more it’s unraveling
CH
Ooo, ooh ah
La, la la
Love is the way we go together
Ooo, ooh ah
La, la la
Love is the way we go we’ll go forever
V2
Deep, dark secrets
Zeis zoom sees it
Stops all the whistle blows
Keep your head stuck in the sand
1,2,3, Strike up the band,
Who’s got the emperor’s clothes?
PRE 2
Spinning around, round, round
A flower child
Sowin’ the seeds of love
Every once in a smile
CHORUS
SCAT BRIDGE
CHORUS REPEAT
TAG
Love is the way
la, la, la...

Take Me Away
04:06
|
|||
V1
Hard to see
Hard to breathe
Hard to believe
In anything
CH
Take me away
Pack your bags
Let’s go today
Let’s be kids and play
Run, run, run, before we turn grey
Take me away
V2
Ride the wind
Like a wave
Hold my hand
And say, “Don’t be afraid”
CH
Take me away
Pack your bags
Let’s go today
Let’s stay kids and play
Run, run, run, before we turn grey
Take me away
BR
Just like pretending
Pick who you wanna be
I’ll be the mountain
You be the sea
Just like pretending
Pick who you wanna be
I’ll be the mountain
You’ll be the sea
You’ll be the sea...
REPEAT CH

Misplaced Love
03:34
|
|||
V1
I thought I put it
Someplace safe
But I caught a glimpse of it
Run-ning away
Would have been better
Swept under the rug
Oh where, Oh where
Is my Mis-placed Love
V2
With a cheeky bird
Up in a tree?
Cajoled from its cage
Finally free?
TAG 2
One little crumb down a dangerous path
Will it find it’s way back?
Oh, love, love, love
CHORUS 1
Funny how it’s only found when it’s lost
Makes the world’ go ‘round
And my heart stop
Where, oh where is my
Misplaced love?
V3
Last time I had it
There came you
A stranger whose danger-
ous “How do you do?”
A punch above my weight
Without kid gloves
Tied on the tracks all because of
Love, love, love,
CHORUS 2
SOLO / SCAT
CHORUS
It’s the little riddle
I’m in the middle of:
A bit of bad is good
And here’s the rub
Love is blind
So hard to find
Misplaced Love!
La, la, la ,la
Funny how it’s only found when it’s lost
Makes the world’ go ‘round
And my heart stop
Where, oh where is my
Misplaced love?
So, have you seen my misplaced love?
Have you seen my misplaced love?

The Ride
03:14
|
|||
V1
What, am I crazy or what to be thinking this
But what do you call what I’m feeling when we kiss
Oooh, Oooh
I don’t mean to be jumping to anything
No, I’m not doing nothing, just want to sing
Oooh, Oooh
CH
Let’s take the ride
Cause this road
Is wide op-en
Jump inside
And we’ll fly
And we’ll keep on goin’
V2
Somehow you know how to hold every part of me
You’re on a roll doin’ what comes naturally
Won’t let the sun say we’re done with the perfect day
Who’s gonna miss us if we runaway
REPEAT CH
BR
I’ve always wanted to see California
They’ve got cowboys and palm trees and it’s warm, yeah
REPEAT CH

Run For The Sunshine
03:48
|
|||
No make-up
Just a tan on my face
Cut-off jeans
Bikini strings over the waist
The way my legs stick to the seat
Been waiting all winter for the end of this week
I’m ready, so bring on the heat
CH
Let’s make a
Run for the sunshine
Leave my troubles behind
Yeah, yeah, feeling fine
Life’s about enjoying the ride
Make a run for the sunshine
VERSE 2
Coconut
Floating over the breeze
Blankets, BBQ
Surfboards and frisbees
Riding along on the strand
Shining bodies and toes in the sand
Hardly working, as hard as we can
CHORUS
BR
Something about the how the light lays
Across the water
Yesterday fades
And all I want for tomorrow
REPEAT CHORUS

V1
Trumpets
Ta - ta - tet
Oom-pah
Clarinet
Fine parade
A sunny day
Sticky cheeks and
Lemonade
Block towers
Planting seeds
Robots
Dirty feet
The birds we were
Saved the day
Until we had to
Fly away
CH
Waving goodbye
But I don’t understand
Searching the sky
As the train rounds the bend
Waiting to say hello again
Waiting to say hello again
V2
A tree falls
Where’s the sound?
The rosey
We ring around?
Salad days
Left behind
For stand up straight
And stand in line
The snakes have
have left their nooks
for busywork
and important books
Bigger dreams
Than fairy tales
Starfish
Wanting to be whales
CH
Waving good bye
But I
don’t understand
Searching the sky as the train rounds the bend
Waiting….
BRIDGE
I’ll call a dragon
To show you the way
To hold your hand
In the far off land
Of friends to be made
Where’s the good part
In this thing called good bye?
No one is talking
And I don’t know why
((Instrumental))
V3
Smiles in a treasure box
Memories a sly fox
The last to leave the fine parade
Watch the petals swept away
CH
Waving goodbye
But I don’t understand
Searching the sky
As the train rounds the bend
Waiting to say hello again
Waiting to say hello again

Somebody Somewhere
03:36
|

V1
Trip
Through life
On a high wire
Who’ll catch me
When I fall?
Skip
(to) The end
To miss the fire
And crash the crystal ball
PRE
Fickle clouds of fate
Come and, blow me away
CH
Somebody, somewhere
Is who I am
Slingshot
Off a rubber band
Stepping 1 forward and 2 back
Love - it’s like heart attack
Somebody somewhere else
Is gonna
Feel it too // (Is it you?)
Ba-doo, ba-doo….
V2
Staring
At you while you sleep
I miss you like you’re gone
Waking up
It’s just a dream
Where do I belong?
PRE
The bubble on my tongue
ahh the taste of fun
CHORUS
BRIDGE (PRE)
Fickle clouds of fate
Come and, blow me away

Wake from a dark sleep

Breaking through the dirt
Hold up my own sky
Jump, fall or fly
